What sort of martial arts do you practice in and why? Judo? Karate?

Educating yourself in self defence seems very useful especially if you live in parts of a country that might be rough.

I'd like to get into it myself but I can't hear well, I can lip read however. Did some boxing when I was very young but it was only practice on training bags : )

Kung Fu students and masters alike, let me know your wisdom!

I did wushu aka chinese kungfu, but not for self defence, but for athletic reason. I doubt anything that doesn't involve sparring with a knife is helpful in real world situation, but it's definitely helpful when it's time to run.
